If any change to this TOS is not acceptable to you, your only remedy is to stop accessing and using the Service.

You must be of legal age to enter into a binding agreement in order to accept the Terms. If you do not agree to the General Terms, do not use any of our Services. If you agree to the General Terms and do not agree to any Service Specific Terms, do not use the corresponding Service.

Description of Service

The "Service" includes (a) the Site, (b) ALIGNMT's member network, products, services and related technologies for accessing and administrating your internal and external business related communications, collateral, contributions, etc., and (c) all software (including the Software, as defined below), data, reports, text, images, sounds, video, and content made available through any of the foregoing (collectively referred to as the "Content"). Any new features added to or augmenting the Service are also subject to this TOS.

ALIGNMT does not own and shall not be responsible for any data, information or material that you authorize us to retrieve or submit to the Service in the course of using the Service ("Customer Data"). You, not ALIGNMT, shall be solely responsibility for the accuracy, quality, integrity, legality, reliability, appropriateness, and intellectual property ownership or right to use all Member Data, and ALIGNMT shall not be responsible or liable for the deletion, correction, destruction, damage, loss or failure to store any Customer Data. ALIGNMT will have the right to exploit aggregated Member Data or data generated by or on behalf of ALIGNMT in connection with the Service and to provide aggregate, de-identified data to third parties, so long as such data is presented in the aggregate and does not identify you.

ALIGNMT may offer you certain features or a limited version of the Services on a temporary ("Trial Period"). Unless earlier terminated as described in this TOS, any Trial Period will continue for (a) the then-current Trial Period offered by ALIGNMT, as set forth in the Service, unless otherwise extended by ALIGNMT in its discretion, or (b) if earlier, the start date of your paid Services term. The Trial Period may be subject to additional terms and conditions as set forth in the Service, which are hereby incorporated by reference into this TOS; any such additional Trial Period terms will govern in the event of a conflict with this TOS. ANY MEMBER DATA YOU PROVIDE DURING THE TRIAL PERIOD MAY BE DELETED AFTER THE TRIAL PERIOD UNLESS YOU PURCHASE A PAID SUBSCRIPTION FOR THE SAME SERVICE FEATURES.

ALIGNMT is not a broker/dealer, Finra or SIPC member firm and does not, in any way, shape or form, engage in regulated securities transactions…period. ALIGNMT complies in every way with the SEC’s M&A Broker rules, which can be found here, when engaging in Mergers & Acquisitions work.

If you want to sell securities, get a registered Finra member.

We are not lawyers either. If you want legal advice, get a lawyer.

Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE, INCLUDING THE SITE AND CONTENT, AND ALL SERVER AND NETWORK COMPONENTS ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, AND ALIGNMT EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ALIGNMT DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, ERROR-FREE OR VIRUS-FREE AND NO INFORMATION, ADVICE OR SERVICES OBTAINED BY YOU FROM ALIGNMT OR THROUGH THE SERVICE SHALL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS TOS.

THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION ALLOCATE THE RISKS UNDER THIS TOS BETWEEN THE PARTIES, AND THE PARTIES HAVE RELIED ON THESE LIMITATIONS IN DETERMINING WHETHER TO ENTER INTO THIS TOS.

Some states do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, which means that some of the above limitations may not apply to you. IN THESE STATES, ALIGNMT'S LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

Disclaimer of Warranties

ALIGNMT shall provide notice to you of any such claim, suit or demand. ALIGNMT reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter which is subject to indemnification under this section. In such case, you agree to cooperate with any reasonable requests assisting ALIGNMT's defense of such matter.

Assignment

You may not assign this TOS without the prior written consent of ALIGNMT, but ALIGNMT may assign or transfer this TOS, in whole or in part, without restriction.

Governing Law

This TOS shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to the principles of conflicts of law.
